Draw the route
Pick your destinations and WayTally maps the drive between them — real road distances, day by day, so you never plan a six-hour leg with a toddler by accident.
For families who plan together
Know your family holiday cost before you go.
WayTally turns the whole trip — the route, the stays, the activities the kids voted for — into one clear plan with a running budget in your own currency. Road trips are amazing. Budget surprises are not.

How it works
One plan the whole family can see
Every family holiday starts the same way: too many tabs, too many prices, too much time. WayTally puts it all in one place.
Pack the days
Browse activities for every stop — from glacier walks to the good playground — add what the family actually wants, and watch each day fill up sensibly.
Tally the cost
Accommodation, food, fuel, activities, spending money — every line rolls into one live total in your home currency. Add extras, cut something; the number keeps up.
Built for families like ours
You enjoy the moments.
We handle the numbers.
WayTally was built by a parent who got tired of a budget in one tab, a map in another, and a mental note about the penguin tour. Know your total upfront, stay on budget start to finish, and spend the trip making memories — not doing sums in the car park.
Less stress. More memories. That's the WayTally way.

Where it takes you
Deep coverage, not thin lists
Every destination ships with real activities, road distances and local prices — so the plan you make is one you can actually drive. Three countries live, two more boarding.
Good questions
Things parents ask us
Is WayTally free?
Yes — you can plan your first trip completely free, no card required. You only ever pay if you want the extras, and the price is always on the tin before you do.
Which countries can I plan?
New Zealand, Australia and Japan are live now, each with real activities, road distances and local prices. The UK and Taiwan are on the way — and the families using WayTally vote on what comes next.
Can I budget in my own currency?
That's the whole point. Prices are gathered in the local currency and your running total is shown in yours — pounds, dollars, euros, yen — updating live as you add and remove things.
Does it work on my phone?
Yes. Plan on the laptop at the kitchen table, then carry the budget in your pocket — it's the same trip, on any screen, including from the passenger seat.
Can the kids get involved?
Please let them! Browsing activities together and letting everyone add their picks is half the fun — and it means fewer "I didn't want to do this" moments halfway up a mountain.
The trip is waiting.
